HTTR24-7:Redskins Review: Safeties ..OP UPDATED (2/5): FA REVIEW: Corey Lynch, Kenny Phillips

[STBonecrusher21]

Great breakdown on Lynch.

Really like that guy.

+1 On Corey Lynch LL.
He would be my #1 FA candidate.

[Jumbo]

Lynch for everyone.

My God, if we can sign Keenan Lewis and Corey Lynch we can go into this draft pretty stacked. Too bad Lewis looks to be getting too much attention all of a sudden.

Unfortunately, I think Tanard Jackson is done in this league. Too much of a risk and he won't be available until the season begins.

Maybe. But no need to write him off if you're the FO. We should target his position as if he's not there and, if he gets re-instated and does come back strong, well that just means we'll have great depth at a position that was considered a glaring hole just one season prior.

I disagree about Gomes. I thought he played pretty well. And what he said about Merriweather was that he basically showed him how to play better. He wasn't a safety in college and is still learning

Check out this exerpt from his Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corey_Lynch

"On June 21, 2009, while driving on a Kentucky interstate, Lynch saw a car go off the road and down an embankment. He stopped, ran down to the car, and freed an injured woman's neck. It was written that he saved her life."

He's also married to Billy Graham's granddaughter lol

Gomes if I recall talked about the enthusiasm Merriweather played with and that he was all over the field. I recall Chris Russell from 980 saying that Merriweather is an energetic, boisterous, extroverted personality, Gomes more quiet and introverted. I'd say if Gomes played well, for a team that was desperate for safety help, Gomes spent a lot of time on the bench. Seems like they gave him a couple of shots to start during the season but was soon benched both times.

LL56 any status on T. Jackson? I debated him on another thread. I got no clue of course what's going on behind closed doors but for a guy to be suspended for 39 games in his career already, I'd assume he has serious issues that he might not overcome.

Lynch deflected 28 passes and ranks second at ASU with a Southern Conference all-time record 24 interceptions. His 395 yards on interception returns set a school record. His 52 total passes defended established an NCAA Football Championship Subdivision all-time record. He gained 40 yards on two punt returns, 14 yards on a kickoff return and ranks second in ASU annals with six blocked kicks.

He's also faster then Jairus Byrd

[S.T.real,lights,out]

I think Lynch fits our mold pretty well. A good hard working player. Would be happy with a guy like him on our team.

[WhoRUSupposed2Be]

Corey Lynch sounds very underrated like most of our FA pickups and I guarantee you the FO is already on top of it all. Good write-up LL56.

[RWJ]

Who's up next, LL?

[Forehead]

You said Meriweather is a three tool safety. I'm not a film guy, which one of the four is he lacking in?

[Laxpunk2006]

I wish I hadn't read that review of Corey Lynch. Now I'm going to be bummed if we don't end up landing him.
